Illinois College is hosting a Movember 5k Fun Run on Saturday, November 23, at 8:30 a.m. starting on campus between Kirby Learning Center and Ellis Hall.

Movember is a monthlong global men’s health initiative that encourages fun ways to promote men’s health – like growing out your mustache to help raise awareness.

Participants can register for the race by clicking here. Price is $15, and shirts are guaranteed if registration is received by Friday, November 15. Registrations will be accepted thereafter and also on the morning of race day starting at 7:45 a.m. Registration price is $20 after November 15.

Registration is free to all Illinois College students (shirt not included). To receive a shirt students can register for $10 before November 15.

About Movember: As an official global charity, Movember’s vision is to have an everlasting impact on the face of men’s health. During November each year, Movember is responsible for the sprouting of millions of moustaches on men's faces around the world. Through the power of the Mo, vital funds and awareness are raised to combat prostate and testicular cancer and mental health challenges.
